Colby's six month check up for his heart and liver yesterday made for a very long day, but we are so thankful for the great news we heard! His heart function looks good, and Dr. Doyle has no concerns at this time. His liver ultrasound actually looked better than the one he had a year ago! We even got the ok to follow up in one year, instead of 6 months this time! We are still waiting to hear back on all of his lab work, but we don't expect anything crazy to come from that. This poor guy had to give up 12 vials of blood, but as always, he handled it like a champ. He almost broke my hand during it (Ha!), but I love being there to hold his hand when he does get nervous.
Life with CHD never gets easier. I think we all get a little anxious before these checkups, because you just never know. We just have to take his health one day at a time, one check up at a time, and when we get a good report, we celebrate and thank God for his goodness!
